Week 73

Hello! This week was awesome! We talked to 20 people everyday and it was full of exchanges!!!

On Wednesday I went on exchanges with Sister Doman! She is too sweet for words! I love how she always sees the best in other people! We had tons of fun talking to people at Walmart, getting ice cream, and having some member missionary work lessons! It was also fun visiting with Sister Rollins because she started her mission in Lander and we had a blast reminiscing about the Popo Agie ward!! 

On Friday I went on exchanges with Sister Lloyd! I could hardly believe she has only been in the field about a month! She is seriously such a stud! We talked to tons of people, got ice cream (again), and went out with the Hardie's! It was such a great day, not even being on foot could ruin it!

On Saturday we had zone lunch at President Crane's house! He is the Stake president here in Loveland and he is probably one of the coolest people ever! We talked about helping people along the Covenant path. I felt the spirit strongly as our zone sang "I Love to See the Temple" Faces of people I have taught and have come to love so dearly passed through my mind. I am so thankful that Heavenly Father allows me this honor to help Him in His work. I may not have had as many baptisms as other missionaries, but I feel that my mission has brought me so much more. It has brought me closer to my Savior. It has strengthened my knowledge and testimony of His doctrine. And it has taught me that His way is truly the path to happiness in this life. It might not always be easy or convenient to live the gospel, especially when we cannot see the blessings, but walk by faith, not by sight. Jeffrey R Holland said it best. "Some blessings come soon, some come late, and some don't come until heaven, but for those who embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ, they come" 

It is no coincidence that you are here on this earth, in this time! You are here to grow and to bless the lives of others. How has the gospel blessed your life?

I love you all and I hope you have a wonderful week!
